beunoRobster_: a bit slow these past weeks, we've been a but overwhelmed, but boredandblogging has been handeling it pretty well  :D12:07
Robster_well thats good, it must been hard to keep up the momentum. i was wondering about MT meetings, by the looks of the wiki there hasnt been one for a while12:11
beunoRobster_: actually, the wiki is a bit out of date, we've had one a month or so ago12:12
beunoand if you take a peek at the mailing list, just today I proposed a meeting  :D12:12
Robster_ah ok, i hadnt looked for a few days12:13
Robster_i've added myself to the meetings grid12:40
beunoRobster_: I saw the wiki change, that helps a lot to schedule meetings, thanks!12:41
beuno(I spy on many Marketing wiki pages) :p12:42
Robster_what did you think about the Dell announcement? It sounds ok but i'm suspitious that the U PCs will actually be where anyone can find them12:45
Admiral_ChicagoRobster_: i'm getting one12:46
beunoRobster_: I think it's going to be great for everyone, even Dell12:46
beunoI mean, Dell wins because customers can spend more money on hardware, where they actually have a profit12:47
beunoso my guess is that between all us open source freaks and people who want to save a few bucks, they're going to sell more then a few12:47
Robster_Admiral_Chicago: good for you12:47
beunoand of course, canonical makes money off support, which in return benefits Ubuntu12:47
beunoand also pushes hardware vendors to release Linux-friendly drivers  :D12:48
beunowin-win-win12:48
Robster_yeah, i'll just be interested to find out the exact details when they are on sale, and how obvious they will be on Dell's website12:48
beunoI'm interested in that as well12:48
=== beuno is looking for someone attending debconf7 that lives in the US to bring him a system76 laptop
Robster_i hope it is obvious, then it will be as great as it sounds12:50
beunoRobster_: I don't think it makes sense to announce it and then hide it12:50
Robster_of course the ideal situation would be a radio button choice between Win and Ubuntu that says "save $100" next to Ubuntu12:51
Robster_but that seems very unlikely12:51

Robster_i agree that wouldn't make much sense12:52

MuxecHi.10:51
Muxec<Crazy idea> Microsoft sells Microsoft Mice (or Mouses in some locales) and almost the only open hardware we have is RISC processors which is far from consumer market. Let's respond to MS Mouse with "Penguin Cooling" brand line of PC cooling solutions. Logo most show Tuxy penguin with fan and glaciers in the background. Penguins are commonly associated with cold, that's why this choice of brand name is great </Crazy Idea>11:01
MuxecSuch devices must be positioned for Gentoo users who need to overclock to install their favorite distro in finite time11:01
